TECHNICAL FIELD

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to, but are not limited to, the field of Content Delivery Network (CDN) videos, such as a method, an apparatus, and a system for detecting a video bitstream.

BACKGROUND

With the rapid development of streaming media CDNs, video services of the CDNs are gradually popularized. As a result, problems in network security also arise. A lot of information related to pornography and violence may replace normal bitstreams to be spread to users, causing adverse effects. It is necessary to find a tampered bitstream in the network and generate an alarm as soon as possible.

In existing technology, the following practice is performed to resolve security problems of CDN bitstreams: perform encrypted transmission on a transmitted bitstream, that is, a Digital Rights Management (DRM) technique is used. This scheme can better guarantee security of a bitstream, but an implementation cost of this scheme is relatively high because an encryption and decryption server and a related key management system are required. In addition, existing encryption systems are monopolized by some manufacturers, and expenses is high to purchase licenses.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart of another method for detecting a video bitstream according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4, the method includes steps 401 to 405.

At step 401, a source node which transmits a video bitstream generates a first feature value of the video bitstream according to a preset rule, and sends the first feature value to a comparison server.

The source node may generate feature information, namely, the first feature value, according to an RTP packet of I-frame data of the video bitstream.

The feature information includes at least one selected from: an identifier of the bitstream, an RTP packet identifier of the I-frame data, and information about the RTP packet. The information about the RTP packet refers to an MD5 value of an actual load of each RTP packet.

For example, a plurality of RTP packets of the I-frame data of the video bitstream are selected; an MD5 value of an actual load of each selected RTP packet is generated; and XOR operation is performed on a plurality of generated MD5 values, to obtain the feature information of the video bitstream.

There may be a plurality of RTP packets in one I-frame. Not all of these RTP packets are required to generate a check code (namely, an MD5 value). For example, these RTP packets may be generated in an order of 1, 21, 41, . . . , and a tail packet, namely, an order of a head packet, one packet extracted from every 20 packets, and the tail packet. When the head packet and the tail packet are identical, an MD5 value is only generated once; and when the tail packet is exactly the (N*20+1)_(th) RTP packet, where N is an integer greater than 0, an MD5 value is not generated separately for the tail packet. The check code is an MD5 value of an actual load of a generated RTP packet. Then, XOR operation is performed on a plurality of check codes, to generate the feature information of the video bitstream.

At step 402, another node which transmits the video bitstream generates a second feature value of the video bitstream according to the preset rule, and sends the second feature value to the comparison server.

The another node and the source node generate the feature values according to the same rule.

The another node and the source node may send the feature values to the comparison server via files or messages.

At step 403, the comparison server determines whether the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value via comparison.

The comparison server may obtain the feature information of the video bitstream, that is, the feature values, via file or message transmission.

For example, corresponding feature information may be obtained according to the identifier of the bitstream and the RTP packet identifier that are in the feature information.

Step 404 is performed in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is inconsistent with the second feature value; or step 405 is performed in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value.

At step 404, an alarm is generated.

At step 405, no alarm is generated.

When the first feature value is inconsistent with the second feature value, it is considered that the bitstream is changed. For example, the bitstream is tampered or is replaced by another bitstream. When the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value, it is considered that the bitstream is not changed.

According to the technical scheme provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure, a tampered bitstream can be found in time, and an alarm can be generated.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of still another method for detecting a video bitstream according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

This embodiment is applied to a system shown in FIG. 6. As shown in FIG. 6, a node generating a source bitstream feature value may be deployed at a source node of a CDN network, namely, a first node receiving a bitstream. A node generating a detection bitstream feature value is deployed at another service node (namely, the another node in the embodiments of the present disclosure), that is, a bitstream detection point and a service node are co-deployed. The another service node is an internal node of the CDN network, such as a regional node and an edge node. There may be at least one service node at which the node generating a detection bitstream feature value (namely, the second feature value) is deployed. This embodiment is described by taking an example in which nodes generating a detection bitstream feature value are deployed at two service nodes 1 and 2.

An FTP server is also deployed, and is configured to: receive bitstream feature values uploaded by the source node and the another service node, and provide the values to a comparison server at the same time. Alternatively, a comparison server may be separately deployed, and configured to: receive bitstream feature values that are of a video bitstream and uploaded by the FTP server, and determine whether the values are consistent via comparison. An alarm is generated when it is determined that the values are inconsistent.

As shown in FIG. 5, the method includes steps 501 to 506.

At step 501, a source node generates a first feature value of a video bitstream according to an RTP packet of I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the first feature value to the FTP server.

At step 502, a service node 1 generates a second feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the second feature value to the FTP server.

At step 503, a service node 2 generates a third feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the third feature value to the FTP server.

An order to perform steps 502 and 503 is not fixed.

At step 504, the FTP server sends the first feature value, the second feature value, and the third feature value to a comparison server.

At step 505, the comparison server determines whether the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value via comparison, and whether the first feature value is consistent with the third feature value via comparison.

At step 506, an alarm is generated in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is inconsistent with at least one of the second feature value or the third feature value; or no alarm is generated in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value and the third feature value respectively.

When the first feature value is inconsistent with at least one of the second feature value or the third feature value, it is considered that the video bitstream is changed. Therefore, an alarm may be generated on a user interface.

A comparison module and an alarm module may be deployed in the comparison server. The comparison module is configured to: determine whether the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value via comparison, and whether the first feature value is consistent with the third feature value via comparison; and instruct the alarm module to generate an alarm in response to the comparison result that the first feature value is inconsistent with at least one of the second feature value or the third feature value. A user interface may also be disposed. Alarm information is displayed on the user interface. Alternatively, the alarm information may be directly sent to an administrator.

According to the technical scheme provided by this embodiment, a tampered bitstream can be found in time, and an alarm can be generated. In addition, a video bitstream detection point and a service node are co-deployed, so that the cost is low.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart of yet another method for detecting a video bitstream according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

This embodiment is applied to a system shown in FIG. 8. As shown in FIG. 8, a node generating a source bitstream feature value is deployed at a source node of a CDN network, namely, a first node receiving a bitstream, and a node generating a detection bitstream feature value is deployed at another service node which transmits the bitstream. In other words, a service node and a bitstream detection point are separately deployed physically, but are still one node logically.

The another service node is an internal node of the CDN network, such as a regional node and an edge node. There may be at least one service node at which the node generating a detection bitstream feature value is deployed. This embodiment is described by taking an example in which nodes generating a detection bitstream feature value are deployed at two service nodes 1 and 2.

An FTP server is also deployed, and is configured to: receive bitstream feature values uploaded by the source node and the another service node, and provide the values to a comparison server at the same time. Alternatively, a comparison server may be separately deployed, and configured to: receive bitstream feature values that are of a video bitstream and uploaded by the FTP server, and determine whether the values are consistent via comparison. An alarm is generated when it is determined that the values are inconsistent.

As shown in FIG. 7, the method includes steps 701 to 706.

At step 701, a node generating a bitstream feature value at a source node generates a first feature value of a video bitstream according to an RTP packet of I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the first feature value to the FTP server.

At step 702, a node generating a bitstream feature value at a service node 1 generates a second feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the second feature value to the FTP server.

At step 703, a node generating a bitstream feature value at a service node 2 generates a third feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the third feature value to the FTP server.

An order to perform steps 702 and 703 is not fixed.

At step 704, the FTP server sends the first feature value, the second feature value, and the third feature value to a comparison server.

At step 705, the comparison server determines whether the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value via comparison, and whether the first feature value is consistent with the third feature value via comparison.

At step 706, an alarm is generated in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is inconsistent with at least one of the second feature value or the third feature value; or no alarm is generated in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value and the third feature value respectively.

When the first feature value is inconsistent with at least one of the second feature value or the third feature value, it is considered that the video bitstream is changed. Therefore, an alarm may be generated on a user interface.

A comparison module and an alarm module may be deployed in the comparison server. The comparison module is configured to: determine whether the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value via comparison, and whether the first feature value is consistent with the third feature value via comparison; and instruct the alarm module to generate an alarm in response to the comparison result that the first feature value is inconsistent with at least one of the second feature value or the third feature value.

According to the technical scheme provided by this embodiment, a tampered bitstream can be found in time, and an alarm can be generated. In addition, a video bitstream detection point and a service node are co-deployed, so that the cost is low.

FIG. 9 is a flowchart of yet another method for detecting a video bitstream according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

This embodiment is applied to a system shown in FIG. 10. As shown in FIG. 10, there is a CDN network whose nodes consist of a live broadcast private network node and three levels of service nodes. The three levels of service nodes are a central node, regional nodes, and edge nodes.

The live broadcast private network node is used as a starting point introducing a bitstream into the CDN network, and is used as a source node which transmits a video bitstream, to deploy a node generating a source bitstream feature value (namely, a first feature value). All other service nodes are used as detection points, to deploy nodes generating a detection bitstream feature value.

An FTP server is also deployed, and is configured to: receive source bitstream feature values and detection bitstream feature values uploaded by the live broadcast private network node and the other service nodes, and provide the values to a comparison server at the same time.

Alternatively, a comparison server may be separately deployed, and configured to: receive source bitstream feature values and detection bitstream feature values that are of a video bitstream and uploaded by the FTP server, and determine whether the values are consistent via comparison. An alarm is generated when it is determined that the values are inconsistent.

As shown in FIG. 9, the method includes steps 901 to 911.

At step 901, the live broadcast private network node generates a first feature value of a video bitstream according to an RTP packet of I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the first feature value to the FTP server.

At step 902, the central node generates a second feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the second feature value to the FTP server.

At step 903, a regional node 1 generates a third feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the third feature value to the FTP server.

At step 904, a regional node 2 generates a fourth feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the fourth feature value to the FTP server.

At step 905, an edge node 1 generates a fifth feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the fifth feature value to the FTP server.

At step 906, an edge node 2 generates a sixth feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the sixth feature value to the FTP server.

At step 907, an edge node 3 generates a seventh feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the seventh feature value to the FTP server.

At step 908, an edge node 4 generates an eighth feature value of the video bitstream according to the RTP packet of the I-frame data of the video bitstream, and sends the eighth feature value to the FTP server.

An order to perform steps 902 to 908 is not fixed.

Each of the foregoing feature values carries an identifier of the bitstream, an RTP packet identifier of the I-frame data, and information about the RTP packet. File description information uploaded to the FTP server may further carry service node identifiers. The service node identifiers are used to distinguish between feature values sent by different service nodes.

At step 909, the FTP server sends the first feature value, the second feature value, the third feature value, the fourth feature value, the fifth feature value, the sixth feature value, the seventh feature value, and the eighth feature value to the comparison server.

At step 910, the comparison server determines whether the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value via comparison, whether the first feature value is consistent with the third feature value via comparison, whether the first feature value is consistent with the fourth feature value via comparison, whether the first feature value is consistent with the fifth feature value via comparison, whether the first feature value is consistent with the sixth feature value via comparison, whether the first feature value is consistent with the seventh feature value via comparison, and whether the first feature value is consistent with the eighth feature value via comparison.

At step 911, an alarm is generated in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is inconsistent with any of the other feature values; or no alarm is generated in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is consistent with each of the other feature values.

When the first feature value is inconsistent with any of the other feature values, it is considered that the video bitstream is changed. Therefore, an alarm may be generated on a user interface. The other feature values include the second feature value, the third feature value, the fourth feature value, the fifth feature value, the sixth feature value, the seventh feature value, and the eighth feature value.

A comparison module and an alarm module may be deployed in the comparison server. The comparison module is configured to: determine whether the first feature value is consistent with the other feature values via comparison; and instruct the alarm module to generate an alarm in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is inconsistent with any of the other feature values.

According to the technical scheme provided by this embodiment, a tampered bitstream can be found in time, and an alarm can be generated. In addition, a video bitstream detection point and a service node may be co-deployed or deployed separately.

According to the technical scheme provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure, in a process of bitstream transmission, a bitstream that is changed can be detected quickly when the bitstream is tampered or is replaced by another bitstream, and an alarm can be generated. Therefore, operation and maintenance personnel can quickly take measures to prevent diffusion of the tampered bitstream and ensure bitstream security.
